SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- San Francisco 49ers defensive end Nick Bosa has been back with his team for only two days, but he left no doubt Friday that he intends to play Sunday against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
"I'm confident," Bosa said. "I'm not sure what [coach] Kyle [Shanahan's] plan is, but I would be up for [a] normal workload, for sure."
Bosa, speaking to Bay Area media for the first time since signing a record-setting five-year, $170 million contract extension that includes $122.5 million in guarantees Friday morning, took part in practice on a limited basis Thursday and then was listed as a full participant in San Francisco's half-speed Friday session.
